damn. $800 in false trips. More than my saw cost new. Dandy product
you got there. what a joke!


False trips are an annoyance, but it's possible that the cost of the saw
and replacement cartridges and blades might be saved by one real trip. You
can be extremely careful in the shop (and should be) but one moment of
stupidity or one action messed up could result in permanent injury.

I'm usually in the extremely careful camp, but made one mistake and
fortunately the push block paid for it.

Absolutely! We all try to be careful and those of us with half a brain
realize that trying to be careful all of the time just does not fly. We
are human and accidents happen.

How much does it cost to reattach a finger or hand?

Evidently, most tablesaur accidents are unrecoverable. The saw
shatters the bones too badly in too many cases. Just call 'em Stubby.
